DNA is often called the blue print of an individual's life. It has the make-up of what every trait and characteristic inside and outside of the body will be. It is important for DNA to replicate itself in order to reproduce. Everyone has genes that were passed down from their parents. Each parent gives exactly one copy of their genes to each child they have. Every new cell needs a copy of DNA, so it is the DNA's job to replicate itself and pass on a copy to an organism.

In which stage does the DNA make an exact copy of itself?

DNA usually makes a copy of itself when the cell is replicating. It makes a copy of itself by "unzipping" the double helix of its structure down the middle, and each half will then remake its other side to complete replication.
